History

It was incorporated as a Village in 1977 then merged into the Town of Dalhousie November 4, 1982. The main street (Route 275) through the former village was renamed Darlington Drive after amalgamation. It became residential in the post war housing period in the late 1940s and 50s, when farmland was subdivided. [1] The first mayor of Darlington, was Richard W. Taylor who won by a landslide. He won a second term by acclamation, but died shortly after this. It was after this that it was amalgamated with Dalhousie.
